Why Some People Avoid Thinking About Their Own Death
I thought that anyone facing death would want to right wrongs, share sage advice, ask for forgiveness and forgive. My experience as a death doula is that this doesn’t always happen.
Legacy of Love
The website Living with Purpose says that, “Your Personal Legacy is more than simply a statement of how you wish to be remembered after you pass on. It is something that enriches your life and reveals you and what your life is about to your family, friends, and your community.”
Death in the Movies
Believe it or not research suggests that there is a correlation between sad movies and our happiness – the idea being that by watching heart-wrenching movies, we appreciate more what we have in our own lives. Watching sad movies can also validate our own feelings of grief, depression and angst.
Living Well to Dying Well
“Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.”
Imagine Your Last Day
Embrace each day as potentially your last by finding joy, practicing gratitude, and planning for a ‘good death’ with daily delights.
